#1 WWE throwing a curveball in the main event

A Fatal-4-Way match between Naomi, Carmella, Alexa Bliss, and Dana Brooke took place. It was dubbed as a 'predictable' match, with people expecting Naomi to win since she already teased a feud against Bayley last week and is still fresh from her return.

However, that didn't happen. Instead, she took the fall and it was Bayley's real-life best friend Carmella who ended up winning the match, taking some by surprise. We commend WWE for throwing a curveball.

Carmella makes sense as an opponent, but perhaps they could have had her feud for the title after WrestleMania and be a part of a longer program. Just like Goldberg, she's going to be a filler opponent for Bayley before the latter faces Sasha Banks at WrestleMania 36.

Admittedly, a filler spot was needed but Naomi would have been better for that. Carmella and Bayley have never feuded before and they'll have a quick one-off before the road to WrestleMania 36 wraps up.
